You can't please everyone and stop trying.

You and I have talke...First, ditto what Lisa said! You and I have talked about this a few times, I'm not sure what the motivation is for some nasty reviews and for Lazy Sundays, well, the volunteers should be apologizing to you for not picking it up (including me as I did not find any when I read it or I would have told you, so sorry!)<br /><br />As for swag, I'm one of those strange people that likes it and my favorite things so far are postcards/story cards - kind of like the character cards you mentioned, only it is the story synopsis on the back of the card rather than just one character - the one I have of Spell Cat is in a frame, I love that cover so much! But postcard size means you can do that, or use it as a bookmark should you be so inclined to do paper!<br /><br />A het writer I know, who has a series called "Six Pack Ranch", did bottle openers with the logo on it. She also did a wolf series and did dog tags with "Wolf Pack" and the year on them, I was lucky enough to get that too! I've also got a drink cozie that I use and a tote bag.<br /><br />What might be kinda cool for you, although I have no idea who makes them, a temporary tattoo? If there is a specific graphic or logo you connect with you, that would be different!<br /><br />I have a promo mag at work if you want me to look through it, a friend of mine is a rep for one company but has links to all sorts of suppliers so she sent me a catalog, but I'm not sure you want to go that elaborate! Some are kinda cool though, and price pretty much always depends on how many and how soon you want them and if the artwork is in the format they need or they have to do if for you.<br /><br />But I should stop blathering on - it's 8:30pm, I've only been home for an hour after putting in 13 hours at the office, I'm exhausted and kinda hyper at the same time - not a good combination and seems to lead to running on at the....keys, I guess?!?!<br /><br />I'm sure you'll come up with something great that I can put in the print copy of Lucius' Bite that just got shipped..... :)<br /><br />Take care, don't worry about the haters that are out there, small consolation as it is, they likely hate themselves more than anything or anyone they criticize and as Lisa already pointed out, we're fans of your work!Diane Anoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7428156000848968113.post-4154514488714257972012-07-31T19:11:54.107-07:002012-07-31T19:11:54.107-07:00Hi K-lee! I'm still out here...lol. :D
I re...Hi K-lee! I'm still out here...lol. :D<br /><br />I really don't understand reviews at times. The same book may have a 5 star review from one person, but a 1 star from another. I cringe at some of the things that are said, but like you, I would never reply with a nasty comment. You just have to try not to let them get you down because more than likely, others (like me) will love your stories. :) <br /><br />Have fun and enjoy your getaway!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17592954015398049709noreply@blogger.com
